Get system audio stream buffer for visualization

Question

I tried getting the system output device stream buffer using NAudio but I had this problem:

C# Unity 3D NAudio throws NullPointerException while checking for default audio endpoint

The same exact code mentioned in that question works just fine in my windows forms projects(outside Unity).

NAudio would be the perfect solution for me, but it just doesn't want to cooperate with Unity for some reason. So is there any free alternative to NAudio or any other free possible solution for this problem?

Please read [ask]. Questions asking to recommend libraries are off-topic. — Camilo Terevinto, Jan 13 '18 at 15:53
"any other free possible solution" is still the same. The reason the *or* is there does not make this question on-topic. — Camilo Terevinto, Jan 13 '18 at 15:56
see if this helps, probably solves both issues https://code.google.com/archive/p/naudio-with-unity3d/ — rene, Jan 13 '18 at 15:59
@rene Oh.. I might've forgotten to mention that I've already tried that library and it doesn't work either.. Same error. The version of that library only doesn't have the ``HasDefaultAudioEndpoint()`` function in it, so I directly used ``GetDefaultAudioEndpoint()`` — Tom Lenc, Jan 13 '18 at 16:04
You might want to include all your research in your question. — rene, Jan 13 '18 at 16:12

I personally have used FMOD to great success, for help on how to integrate into unity you can look at an open source project that utilises it to great effect :) here: https://github.com/OrderOfThePorcupine/ProjectPorcupine.

Can FMOD get the audio buffer of an output device, such as speakers? – Tom Lenc Jan 15 '18 at 10:06
I believe so :) – Braedon Wooding Jan 22 '18 at 01:32
